Original source

Record-breaking cold across the central and eastern US is fueling the season’s largest winter storm, threatening to freeze Texas, ground flights, ice power lines, and leave up to 16 inches of snow in the New York City metropolitan area. Southern states are expected to see extreme ice conditions, and Washington, Philadelphia and Boston are also expected to see snowfall. If the forecast holds, it would be the biggest snowstorm to hit Manhattan since 2021, based on snowfall records at Central Park. Bloomberg Meteorologist Craig Allen joins Bloomberg Businessweek Daily to discuss. He speaks with Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec. (Source: Bloomberg)
